I didn't pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face. About 20 minutes later, when l was walking upstairs I hear Kevin crying inside the bathroom. I knocked on the door and asked, "Hey, Kevin, do you want to talk?" No answer. I tried again, "Why don't you come out of there?" Again, no answer. So, looking around, I took a stack of（一摞）cards and a pencil and wrote, "If you don't want to talk, we can write notes to each other."An hour later I was still sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank and one was cards from Kevin on which he expressed all his terrible feeling into words for me, One of Kevin's notes said, "Nobody in this family cares about me. I am not the youngest, and I am not the oldest. Tommy thinks I am silly and Dad wishes he had the other Kevin as a kid because he's better at basketball. And you're never around to even notice me."My eyes became wet as I wrote back to him. "You know, Kevin, I really do love you and I'm sorry I don't always show it. I am here for you and you are loved in this family."There was no answer for a while, but then l hear a tearing（撕）sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin who had run out of cards wrote on a torn paper cup, "Thanks."I wrote back "For what?"It returned to me with "Loving me" on it.Since then, I try my best to never only half-notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer relationship now. And sometimes when one of us notices that the other is unhappy, we'll smile and say "Write it on a paper cup."46. Why did Kevin stay inside the bathroom alone crying? A. Because he thought he was the worst boy in the family. B. Because he hurt his face when rushing up the stairs. C. Because he felt no love from the family members. D. Because he thought Mum only half-noticed him.47. What makes Kevin think that Dad doesn't like him? A. He is much sillier than Tommy is. B. He isn't good at playing basketball. C. He doesn't like to make friends with others. D. He always refuses to answer others' questions.48. Which of the following is true about the writer? A.

What's the main idea of the passage? A. Writing words on a paper cup is a good way of communication. B. It's hard to get on well with family members. C. People should show how they love their family members. D. It's important to keep peace in the family.BThe story starts in a German classroom. A teacher gives an exciting speech to his students about the glory of war. He encourages his students to join the war, so that they could bring honour to Germany. So the whole class of students join the war and leave together.They are brought to a training camp and then are sent to a post with some soldiers that have been on the front for quite some time. The soldiers try to gather food up to satisfy their hunger. More and more young boys die of hunger.Most of the soldiers wonder about why the war is happening and why they cannot just go home. They wonder why they can't just throw all of the kings into a large field and let them fight it out among themselves. It is not long before only one of the young men from the start of the movie is left. All of the other young men have died. Paul (the last young man) is wounded（受伤） badly. He returns home to see his mother. He goes around town and it seems like nothing there has changed. The people are still talking about the glory of war. Paul can't help feeling sorry for them, because those people who never go to the war field cannot understand how terrible the war is.When he returns back to the front, his friends all have died. The film ends with the death of Paul. A gun shoots him when Paul is catching butterflies. On the newspaper there is only A/ Quiet on the Western Front.50. What does the underlined word "glory" mean in Chinese?51. Why do more and more boys die?A. Because of coldness. B. Because of hunger.C. Because of fighting. D. Because of environment.52. What does the film talk about?A. It shows the terrible truth of the war. B. It tells a story of a young man.C. It speaks highly of the glory of war. D. It encourages young people to join the war,CThey say that before long, we will be able to receive more than 500 television networks on cable(电缆). Some people think that it's silly to have that many channels. Their usual view goes something like this."I already get more channels on my TV than I have time to watch. No one needs to see that much TV. There's not enough time in the day to watch all that!" They also say that most of what's on television now isn't worth watching in the first place.I think they're missing the point. If the local library wanted to add another 5,000 books, would we say, "That's silly. We'll never have time to read all those books?" The point is that we would have more choices.I don't believe that most people should watch more television. And if we had 500 0r even l,000 channels to choose from, we wouldn't have to spend more time watching TV. We would, however, have better programmes to choose from. That means that the quality of our viewing time would improve.So I should say that the more channels we can choose from, the better. Give me more choices! If they're not worth my time, I'll just hit the "off" button.53. The writer is writing mainly to_. A. give important information B. express an opinion C. praise cable television D. get more channels to choose from54. According to the passage, the writer wants to_. A. have more choices when watching TV B. buy more television sets C. read more books from the local library D. spend more time watching TV55. To make his point, the writer compares cable system to_. A. families B. computers C. libraries D. networks56. What can we learn from the passage? A. Some people prefer reading books to watching TV. B. Some people think they have no time to watch TV. C. The writer likes watching TV very much. D. The writer will turn off the TV if the programmes are boring.D You'll never be good at Maths.It's generally accepted that boys are good at Maths and girls aren't. The fact is that it isn't true.When girls reach their teens, most of them lose their interest in Maths. They think they arefemales. They want to stay away from things that are boys' things, and Maths is still thought of to be a boy's thing, The Maths class is hard, but if you give it a chance, you could be great at Maths, especially because you are a girl. Being skinny is good.Lots of websites tell visitors that losing interest in eating is a beautiful thing. They are lying. Losing interest in eating is a disease, not a healthy thing. It can kill you. You are not supposed to make as much money as a guy.It's said that in 2011 women who work full-time earn about 23 percent less than guys earn. Once you see real women successful in cool jobs, you'll truly get that you're worth just as much or more than any guys. Caffeine (咖啡因) will help you study better.Caffeinated soft drinks have long been advertised as must-haves for women when you have to work very hard. But if you want to do your body a big favor, you'd better give UD caffeine altogether.57. The word "skinny" means very_. A. tall B. slim C. pretty
